Abstract: Many companies nowadays launch their new products in the global market. International product managers must effectively coordinate and orchestrate multiple introductions in a variety of country market environments. Sticking to time schedules remains fundamental for new product success. Delays will be destructive, an unwieldy problem in high-tech highly international sectors where product life cycles are short. What are the main causes of delays in new product rollouts across multiple country markets? The results of a case based study reported in this article provide some answers to this question.
